Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
During my stay, I was physically assaulted by a male guest and his family. They attempted to drown me in the pool, motivated by homophobic behavior, and one of them spat in my girlfriend’s face. There was no security present, and other guests had to intervene to pull the individual off me. When management became involved, they only removed the male guest from the premises, allowing the rest of the family to stay. This incident occurred on the second day of my stay. Given the trauma and the lack of safety I experienced, I requested to be transferred to another Riu facility. However, the facility refused to accommodate this request unless I paid an additional fee. I also asked the facility to contact the police so that the individual could be held accountable, but they refused to do so. I will never return to this property and will be filing a formal complaint with the tourism board regarding this unacceptable treatment and lack of action.

Beware of your valuables when staying at the RIU Santa Fe! Your valuables will get stolen out of your room! We had a 2 week stay over the holidays and unfortunately the cleaning lady stole my wedding ring when cleaning our room. I notified hotel staff as soon as we returned to the room at lunchtime and the ring was missing. They assured me they would handle the issue but unfortunately, they let the cleaning lady leave the property that day without obtaining my ring. I’m sure I’m not the first she has done this to but it’s unfortunate to have these kind of folks coming into your room and stealing valuables while the hotel does nothing! BEWARE OF YOUR VALUABLES WHEN STAYING AT THE RIU SANTA FE IN CABO!!

there was not a lot of unique things. but a lot of things NOT to come back. Not kids friendly it is adult friendly and catered to adults. not for relaxing in tranquility, we came home tired from lack of sleep and towards the end were treated for stomach issues due to food. found cockroaches and bugs even after they cleaned. had issues with room cleaning. drunken adults fighting 7 nights out of 10. not much to do for kids, they say there are activities but it is not true, many they don't kids watch TV, color..
